Popis: To assess the development and the current practice of predeposit autologous blood transfusion (PABT) in children in France.Nationwide survey with a questionnaire.Survey conducted in January 1995, including 121 blood transfusion centres (BTC) out of which 101 replied.Initiated in 1979, PABT is practiced at present in 66% of BTC. This figure increased by 12% from 1993 to 1994. Orthopaedic surgery was the main indication. Other indications included bone marrow harvesting for allogenic transplantation. Concerning the inclusion criteria, the lower limit of age was 9 +/- 4 years and weight 26 +/- 10 kg.
